Guide:
Budget about $135 (about £90) per person per day plus any dues
and taxes.

Longer voyages of between 50 days and 112 days are available by fast,
modern cargo ships. Round voyages, part voyages and one-way passages are
possible on any of these routes. Stop-overs can also be arranged. Please

NOTE:Passengers are not carried on the stretch
between Genoa and Singapore. The duration of this passage is about 18-25
days, which would allow passengers about a three-week break in either Europe
and/or Southeast Asia before rejoining the ship in Singapore. Alternatively,
we can arrange passage through Suez on a fast container ship.

Itinerary: Great Lakes Trans-Atlantic
round voyages are offered, with embarkation in IJmuiden, Cleveland or Burns
Harbor at a fare of $5,700 for 60 days, with a refund of $95 per day for
a voyage of less than 60 days, or surcharge of $95 per day for days over.
The fare is variable as eastbound destination ports are not known until the
outbound grain cargo is stemmed. Ships then normally return to IJmuiden to
load back to the Great Lakes again. The eastbound trade is grain (wheat,
corn, soybeans, peas, etc) and about half the ships load at Duluth, Minnesota,
or Thunder Bay, Ontario, with the rest loading at Milwaukee, Toledo, Montreal,
Sorel or Quebec. Destinations are not known until the last minute and can
be any of Morocco, Turkey, Italy, Spain, Norway, Poland or Russia before
returning to IJmuiden. (Note: Now that
Egon Oldendorff has stopped carrying passengers, this is one of the last
voyages left for those wanting a long voyage in a bulk carrier).
